PREFACE. 



This edition of Xencphon's Cyropaedia is an exact reprint of 
L. Dindorf's revised edition, Leipzig, 1826. Besides his edition^ 
Which comes nearer perhaps to the true reading of the text 
than any other one extant, in the preparation of the Notes tlw 
editor has had access to the following editions : 1. Fischer's 
Commentarius in Xenophontis Cyropsediam, edited by C. T\ 
Kuinoel, Leipzig, 1803. 2. Schneider's. 3. Ern. Poppo's, 
Leipzig, 1821. 4. F. H. Bothe's, Leipzig, 1821. 5. C. Lange's, 
Halle, 1822. C. C. F. A. Nobbe's, Leipzig, 1825. 7. Borne- 
mann's, Leipzig, 1838. 8. Hutchinson's, Glasgow, 1821. 9. 
Barker's, London, 1831. The editor has derived much assist- 
tance also from the Lexicon Xenophonteum of Sturz, and G. Ch. 
Crusius' excellent Lexicon of the Cyropsedia, published at Leip- 
zig in 1844. 

The grammatical references have been made mainly to 
Sophocles' Grammar and to the School Grammar of Kiihner, 
published at Andover, 1844. References are also made to the 
Grammars of Buttmann, Matthiae, Thiersch, Host, Jelf's edition 
of Kuhner's Larger Grammar (Oxford, 1842), and to the valuable 
Grammar of Prof. Crosby, of Dartmouth College. The sheets ot 
the Elementary Grammar of Kuhner, now in a course of publica- 
tion at Andover, were kindly sent me by the publishers, b;it 
unfortunately too late to make use of them in the way of reference 

In the preparation of the Notes, the same principle is observed^ 
which the editor laid down for his guidance in preparing the notes- 
of the Anabasis of Xenophon and Homer's Odyssey, viz., on the 
one hand, to avoid such exuberance of translation and explana- 
tion as shall tend to diminish the student's self-dependence, and 
train him up to habits of indolence and inattention to grammatical 
analysis • and on the other, to slum that meagerness of commen- 



PREFACE. 

tary and disregard of exegetical difficulties, which leaves him to 
grope his way unaided through the most dark and vexatious 
passages. That the editor has always kept on this medium line, 
is more than he dares to claim or even hope for, however sincere 
and strenuous may have been his efforts thus to do. 

In respect to the accentuation and punctuation of the text, 
that of Dindorf 's edition has been invariably followed. As in the 
Notes of the Odyssey, so in those of the present edition, every 
oxy tone standing before a punctuation-mark, whether in a Greek 
or English sentence, receives the acute accent. If it has nc 
other argument in its favor, this promotes uniformity. It will be 
seen, that in the Notes the f.nal g is written only at the end of 
words, while in the text it is found at the end of a word com- 
pounded with another. A few pages of the text were stereotyped 
before it caught the eye of the editor, or, in this respect, it would 
have been made uniform with the Notes. 

The Summary is that prefixed to the Hon. M. A. Cooper's 
Translation. The Grammatical Index and the Index of Persons, 
have been prepared with much pains, and it is hoped will be of 
assistance to the student by way of reference. 

The editor avails himself of this occasion to express his 
thanks to the Professors and Classical Teachers, who have 
received with so much kindness and favor his previous contribu- 
tions to the cause of classical literature. The friendly urgency 
with which many of them have pressed upon him the continuance 
of his editorial labors, has cheered him on in those hours of toil, 
which the care of a large classical school has compelled him to 
subtract from the time usually given to recreation and repose. 
Hoping that this volume will show, that the favor with which his 
previous publications have been received, has not tempted him by 
an undue reliance upon the past to be less careful in his efforts 
to merit their future approbation, he commits it to them and to 
the public with the sincere desire, that it may help, in some small 
degree at least, to advance the interests of classical learning in 
our country, and render the study of the Greek language pleasing 
and profitable to the youthful student. 

Cornelius Institute, May 4, 1846.

BOOK I. 

CHAPTER I. 

Kiyov I7tt-*d£ia f the education of Cyrus , the discipline of Cynts, 
The book, however, treats not only of the earlier years of Cyrus, 
hut also of his whole life, his laws, institutions, habits in peace and 
in war, management of his empire, and the means by w^hich he 
gave strength and permanence to his government. It may be re- 
garded in the light of a historical romance, founded in the main 
upon facts, but dressed up and embellished with much that is most 
unquestionably fictitious. It has ever been regarded as a most fas- 
cinating work, and from the purity and wisdom of its maxims, its 
high moral tone, its simplicity of style, and the importance of the 
subject, has been considered a very appropriate classic for the 
young student, and has from time immemorial found its way, in 
whole or in some of its parts, into almost every academic course of 
study in this country and in Europe. The following quotation from 
Smith's Diet. Gr. and Rom. Biog. embodies in a small compass so 
much that is useful for the right understanding of the design of the 
Cyropaedia and the true character of Cyrus, that I take great plea- 
sure in inserting it in this place. " Xenophon wished to show that 
the government of men is not so difficult as is commonly supposed, 
provided that the ruler be wise ; and to illustrate this he holds forth 
the example of Cyrus, whom he endows with all virtue, courage, 
and wisdom, and whose conduct is meant for a practical illustration 
and his discourses for an exposition, of the maxims of the Socratic 
philosophy, so far as Xenophon was capable of understanding it. 
Of course it would not have done to have represented this beau

ideal of a philosophic king, as the dethroner of his own grandfather 
[according to the more veritable history of Herodotus], as the true 
Asiatic despot and conqueror, and as the victim of his own ambitious? 
schemes. It seems incredible that any one should rise from the pe 
rusa?. of the Cyropsedeia without the firm conviction that it is a ro- 
mance, and, moreover, that its author never meant it to be taken for 
anything else ; and still more incredible is it that any one should 
have recognized in the picture of Xenophon the verisimilitude of 
an Asiatic conqueror in the sixth century before Christ. That Cy- 
rus was a great man, is proved by the empire he established ; that 
he was a good man, according to the virtues of his age and country, 
we need not doubt ; but if we would seek further for his likeness, 
we must assuredly look rather at Genghis Khan or Timour than at 
the Cyrus of Xenophon." 

1. "Ewoia, thought, consideration. " Cogitation Sturz. ypiv 

= mihi, the plural form being used for the sake of modesty. This 
usage is, however, more frequently found in the Latin than in the 

Greek writers. Cf. K. § 241. R. 12. o<jcu, how many. Srjfio- 

y.oaxtcu (tirjuoq, xoarew), democracies, popular governments. y.ar^ 

Xii&rnjav, have been put down, dissolved. For this use of the aorisi 

in the sense of the perfect, cf. S. § 212. N. 1. alluq irmq — nohr 

Tevsa&atj to live under any other form of government ; literally, to 
be a noUxr\q (citizen) in some other way. alXoyq nwq is opposed to 
iv drjfioxQGLfta which follows. av, also. ohyanyjcu, oligar- 
chies, i. e. governments administered by the few. rrQaivtZr, to 

become tvoawoi, i. e. absolute sovereigns. Reference is had in this 
word to the way in which absolute power was obtained, rather than 

to the manner in which it was used. ol p\v — o* J*, some — others 

(S. § 142. 1), are in partitive apposition with oacu. See N. on II. 2. 

§ 6. ra/u= xayjtuq. y.uv, i. e. y.al av. hnooovovv %g6vor, 

how much soever time. aoxovreq diaytvuvrai, have continued to 

reign, to hold the government. Cf. S. §222.4. wq — ytysrrjpt- 

vot, as being == being regarded as. wq is joined to a participle when 
ihe action is only something supposed or thought of. K. § 312. 6. 
There is no reason with Stur£ to regard the participle as here re- 
dundant. iSoxovptv. Plural for singular, per modestiam. 

rohq fjtkv — robq Se. See N. on ol (,i\v — ol Si. *■ Ttdvv ti, wholly, 

altcgether, refers to TTsi&o/nevoiq. rohq Start oraq is repeated here 

in the place of the pronoun, in order to give fulness to the sentence, 
or as Fischer remarks, "ut nu d-opivoiq habent quasi suum admini- 
culum."

both — and, as well — as also. The connection is more emphatic and 
definite than though rs — x\ had been employed. Cf. K. § 321. 1. b. 

povxoXoi is in apposition with ag/ovxtq, and powv depends on 

avxovTtq as containing the idea of preeminence. K. § 275. 1. 

of xaXovfisvoi, those who are called. S. § 140. 3. Sv depends 

upon imaxaxwav (S. § 184. 1) and refers to xovxow in the following 
clause, as its antecedent the inversion taking place for the sake of 

emphasis. Cf. S. § 150. 4. ■ Zomv belongs properly to rovrtav. 

and is put after the relative by attraction. (S. J 151. 3). The na- 
tural order would be : ao/ovxsq xovxwv Ewwv — wv av Inioxax&ai. — 

slxoxcoq, rightly, properly. av — vopCQoivxo. S. § 217. 2. 

xoCvw, further, moreover, is here continuative. xaq ayeXaq, the 

herds, properly of oxen, but here used of all the domestic animals 

such as horses, sheep, oxen, etc. Cf. VII. 3. § 7. xolq vofievatv 

(S. § 140. 3) depends on nttd-soS-at,. S. § 196. 2. y, dat. sing. 

fem. of the relative oq, ?/, o, with adverbial signification, which way, 

where. vi^ovxai is used absolutely here, and /wofa depends on 

xctrc*, or some other preposition, to be supplied. anr/ovxaiy 

abstain ; literally, keep themselves off, the verb being in the middle 

voice. £v—Zxe£*wp wv (S. § 150. 5), of which equivalent Zxstvwv 

depends on anr/ovxai (S. § 180. 1), and ojj', upon anstoyoai. S. 

§ 180. 2. xaonolq refers to the milk, cheese, flesh, wool, hides, 

hair, horns, etc. which are obtained from the domestic animals here 

spoken of. xotwv (continuative) introduces an additional proof 

of the docility and obedience of these tame animals. xoiq yiyvo- 

uivoiq belongs to xolq xaonolq. When the attributive follows its sub- 
stantive, the article is usually repeated. This is done for the sake 
of emphasis, or to contrast the substantive with other objects of the 

same kind. Cf. K. § 245. 3. a; S. § 140. 2. xoijo&ai. depends 

on iuioh and has for its subject Ixttvovq understood, referring to xovq 

vofieaq. S. § 158. 3. ovxwq onwq, even as, in the very way. The 

union of these particles gives emphasis to the comparison. *t* 

xotwv (=£r* oV), besides, furthermore. r\a&r\[iz&a, we have known. 

ojq /lit] 7Z6t&£o&aii so as not to obey. See N. on vqxe — a£vovv* 

§ 3 tolq ao/ovac refers to the keepers, and dxpeXovfitvoiq, to the 

owners of these herds. ovq av, whomsoever, av with the relative 

and subjunctive belongs to the relative to which it gives indefinite- 
ness. Cf. JelPs Kiihn. § 828. 2 ; S. § 214. 4. Fische/ remarks, thai 
it is not surprising that Xenophon speaking of the kingly office, 
should associate in his mind kings and shepherds, when in all lan- 
guages, rulers and magistrates are compared to shepherds, and the 
people over whom they exercise authority, to a flock of sheep,

dience from their servants, etc. ovrwq iyiyvdoxo/iw, we thus

See N. on V. 1. § 9. Kuooq — ntoorjq, Cyrus of Persia. When 

the noun in apposition gives an indefinite explanation, the article is 
omitted. K. § 244. R. 6. Cyrus the founder of the Persian empire 
is usually designated Cyrus the Elder, in order to distinguish him 
from the Younger Cyrus, whose expedition against his brother

cannot refer to the people occupying that part of Asia, now called 
India, for we find (III. 2. § 27) that the Chaldeans had frequently 
served under the Indian monarch, which shows that their country 
could not have been very far from the Xaldalov and the ^Aq^vlol. 
My own impression is that Xenophon in this place has inserted a 
fabulous people, in order to give more fulness to the extent of the 
dominions of Cyrus. He selected India, because from the vast 
region to which this name was really given, it would add more to 
the extent and splendor of the empire of Cyrus, than the name of 

any other country which he could have selected. KiU/.o>v.

(§ 337. 9. b), because a future action is spoken of which may be con- 
sidered as the condition of the principal clause. Here the only con-

of was probably Nebuchodonosor (the Nebuchadnezzar of the Scrip- 
tures), and the name of his son, who made this hunting excursion, 
was Evil Merodach. In the second year of his reign (B. C. 561), 
Evil Merodach was assassinated by Neriglissar (called by Jose- 
phus, Niglissaros), the son-in-law of Nebuchodonoser. This king 
in the fourth year of his reign (B. C. 557) was killed in the battle 
with Cyrus, which is narrated, III. 3. §§ 56-70. He was succeeded 
by his son Laborosoarchod, who is probably the one who killed the 
son of Gobryas (Cf. IV. 6. § 4), and caused Gadatas to be mutilated 
(Cf. V. 2. § 28). He was put to death on account of his tyranny, 
after a weak and inglorious reign of nine months. Nabonned (the 
Labynetus of Herodotus, and the Belshazzar c£ the Bible), one of 
the conspirators, ascended the throne and after a reign of seventeen 
years was slain (B. C. 540), at the taking of Babylon by the M;de?

lias assigned the divinities and religious ceremonies of the Greeks 
to the Persians. As Vesta was the divinity who presided over fire, 
there was a propriety in designating her in this place, since the 
Persians were worshippers of the fire, and also of the earth, which, 

as Barker remarks, this goddess also represented. Ad TtargoM.

prets it : " hi ante quam in bellum proficiscuntur, ali possunt et so- 
lent cibo admodum exiguo." Stcphanus (whom Zeunc and Poppo 
follow) thinks that reference is had to those, " qui bellum aggrediun- 
:ui\ rebus necessariis. et nominatim commcatu, minimum instructi." 
Heindorf interprets : " a paucissimis ordiuntur, i. e. initio sunt pau- 
cissimis contenti ; mox qucecunque accipiunt, iis utuntur sine ulla 
parsimonia." Sturz and Bornemann concur in this interpretation 
of Heindorf, which I cannot but regard as, on the whole, preferable

1. dtrbq &£io$. When the Greeks, whose mode of divination 
Xenophon follows in this narration, took their auguries, they stood 
with their faces to the north, so that the lucky omens from the east 
were on their right hand. The Roman augurs on the contrary 
looked to the south, so that with them the west was the fortunate 
quarter of the heavens. rolq JJ^oaCda yr t v xarf/ovoiv =who pre-

this explanation : " Nonne exercitus tuus exigua tfbi videtur pars 
totius gentis Persicse, ita ut plures multo inde arcessi possinf?" 
But this is not the sense which the passage requires. Cyaxares 
seems to wonder that Cyrus had not added the Persians to the enu- 
meration, which had just been made of ihe Median and Armenian 
forces, wherefore he inquires in effect : What then do you think the 
Persian force? which you have brought so inconsiderable, as not to 
increase our number ? Cyaxares wished to draw out from Cyruf?

8. Ovxovv as a perispomenon (S. § 19. 3) is properly an interroga- 
tive, nonne igitur ? By frequent use, however, its interrogative force 
became gradually weakened, until it came frequently to signify 
ergo, igitur. This change of usage may be seen, by putting the 
sentence here in an interrogative form : Is it not true then that in 
this kind of fighting (h> tovto*) = certainly then in this kind of 

fighting. Cf. K. § 325. R. 7. ol oUyoi, the few ; rwv noU.wv,

Hystaspes himself was a taxiarch, and those whom Cyrus addresses 
by the appellation o5 dvdnec; are certainly distinguished from ol eroCl- 
qot, (i. e. drjpoTcu)) whom he had called to the order of the homotimi 
(II. 1. §§ 15-19). Reference is had to the education, which the 
homotimi received in Persia, and of which the common soldiers had 
been deprived, in consequence of the want of pecuniary means. Cf. 
I. 2. § 15. Cyrus here proposes questions to the taxiarchs, in order 
to ascertain what progress the soldiers had made in the new disci- 
pline to which they were exercised. ovdhv — ovn — oihe. See

conqueri de injuria : Hystaspes eum ad se venire jusserat, neque 
adeo potuerat videre, an coquus incepisset ab ultimis, unde Xen.

position of olftcu w r ould be better after a/ncy.ooxaxa. But ol/xat, evi- 
dently refers to vaxdxovq Xappdvovraq, which gives the reason, why 
the portions were small w T hen Hystaspes was served = the pieces

larger portions had all been selected. W.eipiUva r\v. " In order

skill with which they perverted truth, they came by degrees into 
public odium, and were severely handled by Socrates, Plato, Aris-

bad man, Cyrus ought not to imitate him, and therefore inasmuch

quents as he himself was, Cyrus should not follow his example by 
punishing with death the Armenian king : a sophistical argument

evidently used Seixrixaq, i. e. as though the speaker pointed with his

ay.ga l/ot£v. The Chaldeeans supposed from the words of Cyrus (ei 
xa ay.ga fyoixe oi>fApa%a addressed to the Armenians), that the heights 
were to be held by the Armenians. Cyrus addresses the same words 
(xa ay.ga ov/u/ua/a tXrj) to the Chaldgeans, when the Armenian king 
from a similar misapprehension of their import, in turn expressed his 
dissatisfaction, that the heights should be held by the Chaldseans. 
Having thus craftily drawn from both parties the assertion, that 
neither would be safe, if the heights were held in possession by the 
other, Cyrus is furnished with an occasion, on the grounds of justice 
and expedience, of taking possession of the heights himself. A si- 
milar result is found in the arbitration of Q,uintus Fabius Labeo, 
between the inhabitants of Nola and the Neapolitans, adjudging 
them both to the Roman people. Cf. Cic. de Off. I. 10.

seized upon by the Assyrian king, as an evidence that their interests

The word seems to designate those high officers of the army, who 
were present as occasion demanded, to execute the orders of the 
commander-in-chief. From a military, the word came to be trans- 
ferred also to a civil use, and is applied to the principal officers 
of the government, and the friends and counsellors of the king in the 
time of peace. It often occurs in the subsequent portions of the Cy- 
ropaedia, and may always be understood in one or the other of the

torical Present) ready to fight, in case any one should make an erup- 
tion from the camp of the Assyrians. In the use of the indicative in 
the apodosis, and the optative in the protasis, the general principle 
of certainty and contingency, which these moods respectively repre 
sent is observed (See N. on II. 1. § 9). It must always be remeni 
bered, that the optative mood in Greek is nothing more than the subj 
of the hist, tenses, and what is said of the contingency denoted by 

the one applies equally to the other. <j)q ovSalq avxa^a^ when

with some semblance of reason, are spread out with all the copious-

accomplished with much greater certainty, if they should set out on 
the pursuit that very night, which they did. Fischer, Bornemann,

sense : that they could overtake them early on the morrow, if they

of Zeune, Dindorf, and Poppo. — — rov o%lov refers to the women,

referred. Schneider supplies ol Inniiq. Fischer refers it to the 
horsemen, who had been ordered to scour the camp of the enemy. 
Zeune supposes it to relate to the infantry of Cyrus, who were sur- 
rounding the camp of the Assyrians. But this opinion is not worth 
refuting, for in that case, what need would there have been of the 
horsemen, spoken of in the beginning of the section, since none 
could have broken through this cordon of troops and left the camp ; 
or how could it have been possible for some 30,000 men, the number 
of the Persian forces, to have surrounded a camp of such extent, as 
that of the Assyrians must have been, to contain such great num- 
bers (cf. nollanlaatovq ^ud> avroiv, § 40, infra). As usual in such 
cases, many attempts to solve the difficulty have been made by al- 
tering the text, among which that of Weckherlin is eminent for the 
^boldness with which it cuts the Gordian knot : ol p\v dt\ ra? y.ontdaq 
— o* d± ra oTzla, etc. For my part I am inclined to adopt the inter- 
pretation of Lange, who refers it to a special guard detailed for this 
occasion, who accompanied the herald (implied in ixTjoii^v), and de- 
prived of their heads those who disobeyed the edict. This is by no 
means free of difficulties, yet, on the whole, seems to be the best so- 
lution. It leaves the horsemen to perform the work assigned to 
them, of killing all such as were found going off with their arms ; 
and provides a force sufficient to see that those, who remained and 
did not attempt to flee away, obeyed the edict of Cyrus, that they 
should deposit their arms in the place which was designated for that 
purpose. In this case we may understand rwiq with l/ovrf?, which 
is frequently to be supplied with participles.

part I am inclined to think, that in the extremity of her grief, Pan- 
thea tore down the upper part of the shawl which covered her neck 
and bosom, and thus exposed those parts of her person to Araspes 
and those with him. It may be remarked that the peplum was the

the harshness of the transposition, renders this solution at least a 
suspicious one. Schneider refers ntqalvziv to the speech of Cyrus :

plied after fUklti. But this seems to deprive the passage of force

speech, until encouraged and exhorted to proceed by his auditors. 
I prefer, therefore, to refer nzoalvuv to the great object, which they 
all unquestionably had at this time in view, viz. the subjugation of

were restrained from doing this by their sense of inferiority. The 
superiority of the Persians was therefore acknowledged even in the

follow that the officers of Cyrus were acquainted with that fact.

supposed that Gobryas made this proposal to the Assyrian king in 
earnest, but only as a ruse to draw him out and to expose his weak- 
ness. Contrary to the opinion of Schneider, Poppo, Bornemann, 
Fischer, etc., Lange, after Zeune, and Weiske, refers avrbq to Cy- 
rus, who challenges the Assyrian king to a single combat, in order 
the more to provoke him to come forth with his army to battle.

cessarily referred to, but that Cyrus would enter into battle without 

the aid of the Hyrcanians and Gobryas. on ... . nd&ao&cu is

conjectures, that they composed a part of the troops for which Cyrus 
had sent into Persia (IV. 5. § 16). But it would seem from V. 5. 
§ 3, that these eoldiers had not yet arrived. The Persians who 
came with Cyrus to the aid of the Medes, had all received the 
sirmor of the homotimi (II. 1. § 16), and therefore these light-armed 
troops must have been a body raised for the occasion, or there must 
nave been a slip in the author's memory in respect to what he had 
written. It is evident that the Artabazus, who is here spoken of as 
their commander, was a Persian, and not the Mede of the same 
name, who is spoken of as so passionately devoted to Cyrus (cf. VI. 
I. § 9). His name does not appear again in the work. The

of Cyrus. It may here be remarked, that the taxiarchs of each na- 
tion marched in front abreast, and were followed each by his com-

The last interpretation I am best pleased with, as it harmonizes with 
their design as expressed in tfq. . . . rdxn- It may be (although I 
do not regard it as very probable) that these machines were em* 
ployed in the battle with Croesus (cf. VII. 1. § 34. See N. also on 
VI. 1. § 52). But that they were not constructed for that occasion is 
evident from the fact, that it was not until they were nearly or quite 
made (Cf. § 25, infra), that Cyrus received intelligence, that the 
king of Assyria had gone to Lydia to raise up a force against him. 
I suppose, therefore, that these machines were constructed to be 
used in demolishing fortresses, and especially to be employed in the 
siege of Babylon. The capture of this city was the great object 
which Cyrus now had in view, and in respect to which his war with 
Croesus must be regarded as subordinate, and occupying in the 
history here given of Cyrus the place of an episode. xixxovaq =■

Buttmann (§ 142. N. 3) explains the instances of a nominative with 
the infinitive, on the principle of attraction with the nominative of 
the preceding verb. He says, however, that he knows no other ex- 
ample of this, than the case where two infinitives with different sub- 
jects are dependent on the same verb, of which only one has the 
same subject with the finite verb. Poppo after Zonaras thinks it 
better to omit the pronoun, and he therefore brackets it in his edition. 
For my part, I cannot but regard the use of the nominative here, as 
designed to promote emphasis by its departure from the usual case 

with the infinitive. yrjv Iniiaao&ai, to array myself in earth, to

to wheel the wings in a straight line, lest they should approach the 
army of Cyrus before they could be supported by the centre, and 
therefore, they made on the right and left a long circuit, in order 
that the centre and wings might approach with the same relative 
distance from the enemy. This would effect that the legs of the 
gammas would be separated from their main stem (cf. noXv ydg ....

extended, until such a position was gained that an attack on three 
sides might be simultaneously made upon the Persian army. This

20. 7T(qI fihp rwv i$ iravrtaq (sc. /woa?), in respect to those over

recollected, that the station of Hystaspes was opposite the right 
wing of that part of the Lydian army opposed to the front of the 
Persians (see the figure in N. on § 6). Abradatas with his chariots 
stood at his right and was opposed to the centre of the enemy. The 
request of Hystaspes, that Cyrus should give in charge to others 
the enemy who were approaching the flank of the Persian army

had told Chrysantas and those with him (§ 8), that he would be 
present with them to pursue the enemy, proceeded along the lines 
to the left wing, speaking words of encouragement to the leaders 
and soldiers whom he passed, and that he returned to the right wing

Lange thinks that nooq xtgaq which follows, refers to the front line

proached constituted their right wing, which name was still given to 
them, although by their new position, they constituted an indepen-

right and left flank. It would therefore be turning the tables upon

almost frantic fierceness with which he charged the enemy, Abra- 
datas reminds us of the fiery valor with which Edward Bruce is 
represented by Sir Walter Scott as charging the enemy at the 
battle of Bannockburn: 

" With foot in stirrup hand on mane, 
Fierce Edward Bruce can scarce restrain 
His own keen heart, his eager train, 
Until the archers gained the plain ; 

Then, " mount ye gallants free !" 
He cried ; and vaulting from the ground, 
His saddle every horseman found. 
On high their glittering crests they toss, 
As springs the wild-fire from the moss ; 
The shield hangs down on every breast, 
Each ready lance is in the rest, 

And loud shouts Edward Bruce, — 
Forth, Marshal, on the peasant foe ! 
We'll tame the terrors of their bow 

And cut the bow-string loose ! 
Then spurs were dashed in charger's flanks, 
They rush among the archer ranks. 
High o'er their heads the weapons swung, 
And shriek and groan and vengeful shout 
Give note of triumph and of rout ! "

their shields protected) towards it. I should like this interpretation, if 
OTQCKpivreq would signify so much as facing to the right. The com 
mon interpretation, which makes the Persians retreat after they are 
out of reach of the enemies' weapons, first with their backs towards 
the city, then at right angles towards the left, and then with faces 
again towards the city, and so on, is to me inexplicable, unless it 
was the object of Cyrus to display to the enemy the good orcer 
and discipline of his army. Indeed this whole movement of sur

rounding the city with his army, and then retreating back to his 
tents, is only explainable on the ground just alluded to, or what is 
the same thing, in order that Xenophon might have opportunity to 
give his readersTan idea of the qualities of his hero as a tactician. 
Certainly no commander so prudent as Cyrus would risk his army 
by surrounding a great city, which according to the best accounts 
was 8^ miles square, or 72-(- miles in circumference (see Maj. 
Rennell on the Geography of Herodotus), and from which a suc- 
cessful sally might at any time be made upon his line thus attenua- 
ted. Besides it should be remembered that the Euphrates passed 
through the city, which, had Cyrus been disposed to have done so 
foolish a thing as to surround the city, would have prevented him 

from accomplishing his purpose. oooj .... /LitTzpdXXovro, and by

tion was made upon the right bank of the river. That the invading 
army had means for crossing the stream is evident from § 7, where 
Cyrus proposes to take the city by famine, which he could not have 
done had he not been able to have transported a part of his army 
across, so as to block up the place on every side. The trench which 
had been dug around the city for a defence, as Colton remarks, was

horizontally, at right angles with the trench, each end resting upon 
solid earth, so that in case the waters of the river burst through into 
the trench, these palm-trees bending upwards would sustain the 
weight, although their centres were supported by no earth beneath 

them. {mo fiaqovq dvo) y.vQrovvrav, bend up under the weight. 

Respecting this tree Aulus Gellius remarks in substance thus : 
" that Aristotle and Plutarch have mentioned a very wonderful 
matter ; for they say, if you put upon the palm-tree [lying horizon- 
tally] a weight too great for it to sustain, that it will bend neither 
down nor sideways, but rises against the weight, and struggles and 

bends upward." Colton. ol y.av&riXiov, large asses employed

And it is not to be supposed, that men who had received so serious 
and degrading an injury from the hands of any person, would have 
an affection for him, so as to be the most faithful guards he could 
select for his person. We have evidence in this work how bitter 
was the hatred of Gadatas towards the king of Assyria, by whom 
he had been thus mutilated. I prefer therefore with Weiske and

1. Schneider well observes, that this book should have com 

menced with the § 37 of the last chapter of the preceding book. 

XQvadvxaq y.al slnsv uds. Chrysantas seems to have been always 
ready to second the wise and prudent councils of Cyrus (cf. II. 2. 
§ 19 ; IV. 3. § 15 ; VI. 2. § 21), whence it happened, that he arose 
from being the commander of a company to the highest rank in the 
army, and at last was rewarded with the satrapy of Lydia and Ionia 
(cf. IV. 1. § 4'; VIII. 3. § 16 ; 6. § 7). In thus raising soldiers of 
merit step by step to the highest grade, Cyrus reminds us of what 
was practised on a still larger scale and with more system by Na- 
poleon Bonaparte, whose marshals were almost all taken from the 
ranks, and who bestowed his rewards with the most rigid adherence 

to merit. avrovq depends on i/rdslxpsL. Mt. § 412. 7. rd-

many poor rich men, and it will probably hold true, that the more a
